Number 73

The opening moments of No 73 from January 2nd 1982. TVS opted to replace Tiswas (showing elsewhere on the network) with their own creation. A saturday morning programme with a difference. Instead of a studio based programme the show was presented as a drama with the main characters also acting as presenters. There are no opening titles for the programme, the theme music is not the more famous 'Hey You' and just look at the tiny number 73 on that door. Not only would the door number grow bigger but the show did too as it began broadcasting to the entire network the following year.
